Waoo, March 18,187ft.
Houston, May 5.
It is hut natural after the splen-did
ball and pageant under the
brief though brilliant reign of
Comus Thursday night,' that the
Fair should have appeared a little
lame and insipid to-day,' (Friday)
whether it was really so or not.
Not only the dashing Youngbloods
and exquisite Flora McFlimseys had
retired, no more to grace the scene,
but many of a more substantial
character having thus gratified
their curiosity, had also vanished
for home; and the grounds, in con-sequence,
were, by contrast, sug-gestive
of those lines ending—
“banquet hall deserted.”
Nevertheless, the Fair goes on;
the exhibitors still are here with
their goods and wares; and, in the
absence of the multitudes, a favor-able
opportunity is presented to no-tice
specially a few, at least, of the
numerous articlss to which awards
of premiums have been made.
Conspicuous among these not only
from number and variety hut from
a general manifest superiority is the
display of plows by Mr. C. G. Bry-ant
as agent for B. D. Buford & Co.,
Manufacturers, of Rock Island,
Illinois. This display consists of
about twenty varieties of this indis-pensable
article, including the
Texas Blackland, steel, expressly
designed for the waxy lands of this
State; the Dixie and also the South-ern
Clipper, the Lone Star Gang
and the Defiance Cultivator, all
of which are especially worthy of
attention from our farmers and
dealers wishing the best. In vain
would it be to try to point out, on
paper, the several points of excel-lence
in all, or indeed of any one of
these implements of industry;
though, to be convinced, they have
only to be seen, as here, in compari-son
with the Avery and other formi-dable
competitors for popular fa-vor.
The Committee, wth excel-lent
judgment, rising above all pre-judice
or preconceived notions in
making the awards, have fairly
covered the Bufords with the sym-bolsof
their well deserved triumph;
and all who see them must admit
their superior claims.
Mr. Bryant, the State agent, will
shortly visit Austin, Waco, Dallas
and other prominent points with a
view to the more general introduc-tion
of these specialties for Texas
lands, and the Examiner takes pleas-ure
in commending him to favor
wherever he may go. Also Mr. A.
Altimeis, who, as foreman of the
works, visits the State to become
better acquainted with the peculia-rities
and requirements of Our Texas
lands, so far as efficient plows are
concerned. What a wonderful peo-pie,
for enterprise, those Northwes-terners
are!
And speaking of vim, the Sher-man
steam cracker company of
Sherman, carried off the blue rib
bon against the United States, both
as to quality and variety of their
crackers, with some twenty kinds
exhibited against them, and their
display of goods would do credit to
any cracker works, either North or
South. We are glad to see such
institutions growing up in our State,
and every merchant in the State
should encourage them as well as
all manufacturers in the Stale. But
it is almost unnecessary for us to
sav more, as such crackers as they
are placing on the market must
eventually win their own way into
general favor.
In the same connection mention
must be made of Mrs. G. A. Fors-gard,
of this vicinity, who, in the
face of oft repeated assertions, that
this is not a good fruit country and
people can’t have good things here,
exhibits at this fair, not less than a
hundred varieties of goodies, all of
her own make. Canned fruit, pre*
serves, jellies, pickles, paste and
apple butter; a splendid epitome,
in a word, of our great natural ad-vantages
properly utilized under
household industry and skill.
.1 As regards'the races, which are
I given more prominence this year
■* than ever before, they were unim-portant
to-day, and I ciose without
quotations of stock.
The Fair, which has been not
much of a success, at best, virtually
ends to-day,though formally closing
to-morrow night. .T. W. D.

edge of some of the many remarkable
results of the wonderful skill existing
in enlightened communities. One hun
dred years ago our country was new

sities have’compelled ns to cheerfully

etc., etc., and most of our schools,

we have done what this exhibi-tion
will show in the direction of ri-valiug

tions, in law, medicines, theology,
in science, literature, philosophy aud
the fine arts. Whilst proud of wbat we
have done, we regret that we have not
done more. Our achievements have
been great enough, howeuer, to make
it easy for our people to acknowledge
superior merit wherever found. Aud
now, fellow-citizens, I hope a careful
eqainination of what is about to be ex-hibited
to you, will -not only inspire
you with a profound respect for the
skill and taste of your friends from
other nations, but also satisfy with the
attainments made by our people during
the past hundred years. I invode
your generous co-operation with the
worthy commission to secure a brilliant
success to this International Exhibi-bition,
and to make the stay of our

of our attainments in the in-dustrial

agricultural, commercial and
manufacturing people of the world
have been invited to send hither cor-responding
specimens of their skill to
exhibit on equal terms in friendly com-petition
with our own. To this invi-tation
they have generally responded.
For so doing we render them onr hearty

contributions will this day be submit-ted

Paris, May 10.—The correspondence
universalle says the foreign govern-ments
have forwarded the following
accounts of the origin of the distur-baece
at Salouica to their legations in
Paris: The American Consul was at a
railway station when his attention was
attracted by the cries of a Christian
girl. She was surrounded by Mussul-men
who wanted to take her forcibly
to the mosque. While he was seeking
information as to her nationality the
German ank French Consuls were sepa-rately
informed that a woman belong-ing
to their respective nations had
been dragged into a mosque. They
subsequently repaired to the mosqup,
where Jthey were beaten to death.
London, May 10.—A Paris corres
pondent of the Times learns that the
American Consul, fearing that the mob
would succeed in forcing his house,
sent the girl to the German Consulate.
The mob in the mosque compelled the
German Consul to sign an order for
her delivery and then murdered him.

Houston, Tax., Executive Commit- /
tee Rooms, Alay 5, 1876. i
To the Fatrons of Husbandry:
In the meeting of tne Executive
Committee which has just closed, we
have carefully examined the progress
made by the Texas Grange Manufae-turing
Company at Jefferson, and Us
present healthy condition. We take
pleasure in assuring Patrons of the
success of the enterprise. It has now
been in operation seven months, under
the fostering care of the State Grange.
On the first day of this month a state-rnent
has been required, and we find
that the interest and dividends accru-ing
to the stockholders amounts to 20
per cent on the paid up stock, 15 per
cent will be returned by the company
as an accumulating fund to the credit
ol the, Stock-holders, and the whole
amount will be thus appropriated if
not called for in 60 days. Patrons and
Granges have not taken stock as liber-ally
as was anticipated by the State
Grange, and many branches of busi-ness
in this line have been neglected
for the want of means.
The agents ot the State Grange, J.
M. Crockett and Q. A. Forsgard, have
both made an exhibit showing the
amount and manner of doing business,
and we feci satisfied, from its rapid in-crease,
both at Dallas and Houston,
that general satisfaction has been
given. The small commission charged,
aud the special privileges possessed by
them of procuring the necessary sup-plies
has resulted thus far very
beneficially to the Patrons ol Texas,
and we hope that Patrons realizing this
fact, will by general consolidation of
business further augment the impor-tanceof
these agencies.
The Committee on Manufactories has
presented to us a proposition from the
New Braunfels Manufacturing Com-pany,
offering the same discount to
Granges which is made to merchants
in the sale of woolen fabrics. We
would recommend to the Councils and
Granges to correspond with said com-pany
and obtain their terms and pro-cure
a book of samples, prices, &c.
We think a great saving to Patrons
would be effected in consolidating Or-ders
to said Manufacturing Company.

Instruction in tfie Secret Work.
Salado, May 8, 1870.
Ed. Examiner and Patron:
After my respects to you, and
best wishes for your prosperity,
permit me through the columns of
your valuable paper to say to the
Order in Texas that I will visit all
the counties, or as many as I have
time to, where there is one or more •
Granges desiring me to do so, for
instruction tn the secret work &e.
will first visit the counties South
and West of this place. Will begin
the 19th of June, and as it will be
impossible for me to visit each
Grange seperately, I would suggest
both economy of time and expense
that the Granges select a few such
places in each county as will best sub
serve their interest and give me no-tice
at their earliest convenience,the
points selected, and then I will give
them notice of my intended visit
and will visit all or as many as I am
able to. I desire by making this
tour to be of benefit to all that I
vis't, and while this will depend in a
great measure on my ability to
benefit, there is as much depending
on those who may call me to visit
them.
Worthy Masters let me hear from
you and your Granges at your earli-est
convenience.
Yours fraternally,
A. J. Rose,
Lecturer T. S. G.
We are glad to publish the above
from Bro. Rose. It is exactly wbat
is needed, and no abler or more de-voted
Patron could possibly have
taken hold of the work. We com-mend
the matter to those Granges
requiring Bro. Rose’s services. We
are often asked to point out a way
by which Granges may be taught
the “secret work’’ and other mat-ter,
of interest to the members
and Bro. Rose answers in the best
possible way, and besides, the duty
falls naturally upon the Lecturer of
the State Grange.
